 His name really is Sterling Silver AF, a 3 year old Shagya Arabian stallion.

Converted using Fotoman's tutorial Hue/sat adjustment layer, photo filter deep blue, convert to grayscale, tritone preset process blue 2, levels to intensify the contrast, and unsharp mask. He had grass in his mouth so this image had to be toned to hide it under Basic rules.

You catch so much of the horse's appearance without showing her face. Lovely high-contrast processing. 8

I would like this picture more if it was black and white instead of purple.

Very nice! I love the contrast of dark hair to light horse - good texture, too.

Beautiful and elegant angle for this lovely horse. In the advanced editing (I know this is basic), the sand and background might be worked over to give this photo a stronger and more polished impact. 7.
